Cultural note

In Chinese culture, taking a leisurely stroll in parks or scenic areas is a common social activity, often seen as a way to relax and connect with nature. Many parks in China are designed for walking and socializing, highlighting the importance of community and leisure.

Memory tip

Think of a 'loop' (similar to the sound of '溜') around a park as you 'da' (打, meaning to hit or strike, but here it evokes the idea of going out) while enjoying the scenery. Picture yourself slowly walking in a loop, taking in the sights.
